.the work related me

I entered digital design because I liked tech and creativity. I stayed because design forces me to jump into the scary, unexplored territories over and over again. So far, that included flying to the Scottish Parliament for UX research, deep-diving into a wide range of industries, speaking at a UX network event, teaching at LABASAD Barcelona, and meeting a shitload of people who did stuff I never knew existed.
Next chapter? Let's write that together.
